Why did we choose it?

Rwanda Cyahinda is not just a coffee; it’s a sensory journey that celebrates the expertise of local farmers and the natural beauty of the region. Grown in the highlands of Nyaruguru Province, this coffee reflects the perfect balance of climate, altitude, and cultivation practices. The collaboration between Cyahinda WS and over 1000 local farmers ensures that every bean is cultivated with care, making it a premium product that represents the essence of Rwandan coffee.

Where does it come from?

The coffee comes from the mountains of Nyaruguru, in the southern province of Rwanda. At altitudes ranging from 1500 to 1800 meters above sea level, the cool temperatures and seasonal rainfall create an ideal environment for growing coffee. These conditions allow the coffee cherries to ripen slowly, enhancing their flavor profile and producing a complex and well-rounded cup. The Cyahinda farm, founded in 2015 by Nyonsaba Betty Sheba, works closely with local farmers who cultivate coffee on the steep slopes of the region’s mountains, contributing to the unique flavor characteristics of this coffee.

Best brew

Rwanda Cyahinda shines when brewed as espresso or filtered coffee. When prepared as an espresso, it brings out the sweet, fruity notes with a smooth and balanced body. If brewed as a filter coffee, you will enjoy the clear, crisp acidity of fresh apple and the mellow sweetness of ripe fig. Whether you prefer a classic espresso or a more delicate filter brew, Rwanda Cyahinda offers a rich and satisfying cup that’s perfect for any coffee lover.

Process and variety

Process: Washed (Wet) Process

Variety: Bourbon

Rwanda Cyahinda is processed using the washed method, where the coffee cherries are carefully depulped, fermented, and washed to remove the outer fruit layer. This method enhances the clarity and brightness of the coffee’s flavors, allowing the delicate fruity acidity and sweetness to shine. The Bourbon variety is known for its balanced acidity, sweetness, and elegant flavors, making it one of the most sought-after coffee varieties in the world.

Bourbon Variety

The Bourbon variety is prized for its high-quality cup profile, offering a beautiful balance of sweetness and acidity. Originally cultivated in the highlands of Ethiopia and later spread to other regions, Bourbon is known for its smooth, refined flavors with notes of fruit, floral undertones, and rich sweetness. The variety is particularly well-suited to the conditions in Rwanda, where it thrives in the high-altitude regions and produces exceptional cups of coffee.
